A Surreal Night!

Or was it the dawn?

An hour before

the Moon came,

white, resplendent,

and the sky went dark

all of a sudden.

The only thing that shone

was a narrow passage of time.

Two hands emerged in a surreal sky,

and made a shadow over the path.

The hand of God,

and the hand of Man.

Half asleep, I walk the path,

and behind me is the shadow of God.
